I love the idea of this project
It would be so cool if he did an Camille aftershow with these song and any other with the Camille persona: Love or Money, Cosmic Day

What about it?

Those are fan made covers BTW.

Yeah, what about it?

Camille
Believed to be a feminine alter ego of mercurial Pop star Prince. He cut this album in mid to late 1986 as mostly solo recordings. Prince pulled it from release (Supposedly January 1987), all of the songs ended up either on Sign or Black albums, or single Bsides, except Good Love which went on a movie soundtrack called Bright lights, Big City. Only Rebirth of the Flesh is waiting to be reborn (sic). As you know Camille was Princes alter ego caused by his voice being sped up, and Spooky Electric was apparently Camille's evil side. He is responsible for the darker material on the Black Album.
Camille can be heard on "Its gonna be beautiful night" and only had one other release, Scarlet Pussy which was the B side to "Eye wish u heaven". The song can be heard on the B sides and is quite silly, but very catchy.

Just 4 those who dont no

as for the album cover..... can you say basquiat? yes. yes i can. not to mention or forget, basquiat died in 1987.

Nope, that's not right. I thought Camille was his evil side and Spooky Electric was another alter ego, his good self, who ruled Lovesexy and "killed" Camille.

I think Prince (Camille) did it, the doodles are very similar to ones on the Gett Off single cover

Maybe but Prince said in 1988 "The bad side of Camille, Spooky Electric wanted to create something evil. The Black Album was made and Camille cried" like or something didn't he. Don't u think Spooky electric was evil, and then theres scarlet pussy which is almost certainly from 1988.

Love the songs from Camille

That album would easily make my top 5. Apart from the obvious tracks..'Good Love' & 'Rebirth...' are just fuckin awesome.

Always thought this was a cool and ambitious project. Would have loved to see how it would have been presented.

But in a way I'm glad he decided against it and gave us SOOT instead - still to this day my all time favourite Prince album.

Pardon me? You need to check those liner notes again. Camille is NOT on that track.

But the first part of Prince's singing sounds like her, then his voice deepens again, Camille leaves the building. Camille wants 2 dance...

I love Camille i think she's just

oo!

Other way round


Also, everyone using 'she' in reference to Camille - Camille is male.

I was waiting on someone responding to that...

BorisFishpaw said:

I'll assume that that's the actual intended artwork, because it came from you. Correct?

squirrelgrease said:

I think it might be: certainily fits the description from Per Nielson's DMSR.
